Political Punch Recently the President's re-election campaign released a list of songs a soundtrack, really to be played during campaign events or just offered up to his supporters to download.
A theme song for a political campaign is not at all a new concept -- remember FDR 's 'Happy Days are Here Again,' for instance, or the Frank Sinatra rewritten version of "High Hopes" for John F. Kennedy's campaign.
But as we've seen recently, campaigns sometimes run into trouble when they incorporate music without the OK from the musician on the other side of the political aisle.

V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N in the summer sun
Put away the books, we’re out of school
The weather’s warm but we’ll play it cool
We’re on vacation, havin’ lots of fun
V-A-C-A-T-I-O-N in the summer sun

"You Talk Too Much"
(Joe Jones and Reginald Hall)
You talk too much
You worry me to death
You talk too much
You even worry my pet
You just talk
Talk too much
You talk about people
That you don't know
You talk about people
Wherever you go
You just talk
Talk too much
You talk about people
That you've never seen
You talk about people
You can make me scream
You just talk
you talk too much
He's as blind as he can be, Just sees what he wants to see, Nowhere Man can you see me at all?
Connie Francis is sad that you didn’t remember her.

How about Chopin’s Funeral March, since that Kenyan Sh*thead is presiding over the death of America.
